Who it is for

Who a law firm website
is built for.

01 Small and mid-size firms

Clients search before they call — and pick the firm that looks expert and answers first.

02 Solo practitioners

You are the lawyer, the receptionist and the marketer; the site has to do the intake.

03 Personal injury, family and immigration practices

High-intent searches where speed of response decides who gets the case.

04 Business and corporate firms

Partners need a site that matches the quality of the work and the fees.

The problem

Why law firms lose clients
before the first call.

People look for lawyers online, expect an answer within a day — and many firms never reply at all.

01 57%

of people looked for a lawyer on their own, about as many as asked for a referral.

02 79%

of people expect a response from a law firm within 24 hours; 10% expect it within an hour.

03 60%

of law firms did not respond to test emails from potential clients at all.

04 64%

of people say they contacted a law firm that never responded, by phone or email.

05 50%

of clients are more likely to hire a lawyer who takes electronic payments; 40% would never hire one who does not take cards.

What is law firm website development?

Law firm website development means building a site that brings in the right clients: a page for every practice area and location written for the way people search, attorney bios and results that build trust, and an intake form that answers at once and books the consultation. Payments and practice software are connected, so nothing is retyped.

People look for lawyers online, expect a reply within a day and often hear nothing back. The firm that answers first and looks expert usually gets the case — and that starts on the website.

What changes for your firm

More qualified enquiries, replies within a minute, consultations booked and paid without phone tag and every new contact already in your practice software.

FAQ

Law firm website questions
attorneys ask first.

Will the site follow attorney advertising rules?

We build with the usual requirements in mind — disclaimers, no guarantees of outcome, careful case-result wording — and you or your bar counsel approve the final text.

Can clients send confidential documents?

Not through an ordinary form. The intake asks only what is needed to book; documents go through your practice software’s secure portal.

Will it rank for our practice areas?

Each practice area and location gets its own page with useful answers, schema markup and fast loading — the basis of local SEO for law firms.

Does it connect to Clio?

Yes. Intake answers can create contacts and matters in Clio, MyCase or Lawmatics automatically.

Can clients pay online?

Yes. Consultation fees and retainers can be paid by card through LawPay or Stripe.
